Not a car movie but an awesome car is used in the movie "rebel without a cause" which I just watched because of James Dean drivin a black Mercury Coupe.  Cool "Two-lane blacktop" is a must see and my alltime favourite is of course American Graffitti.

Well, wanna see another awesome car in "not another car movie", why not check out Stallone in Cobra, that's one hell of a ride, woah! Too bad it gets wrecked.

Hell yeah Monkiboy, let's see CB-Run just for the hell of it. Those guys are truly amazing. Were they ever sober during the making of that movie? I'mhaving a hard time beliving that! Wink

@ Mangokid: yeah I've heard of that movie but I've never watched it yet. Found some trivia on those Mercurys used, click here http://www.epindustries.com/madness2005.html If anyone interested  Smiley um, too much time on my hands? I dunno...

Great car, amazing story, and hell Luftkraft, superb research, thanx man, there's no such thing as too much time on hands.

Stories like that don't come around too often. First chance you get, check out the film. Might not be an Oscar-Highlight, but who wants that?
